Libmill is a C library that brings Go-style concurrency to C, providing goroutine-like coroutines and channels. It lets C developers write concurrent, blocking-style code without callback-based asynchrony.

Use cases

  • write concurrent code in C with goroutine-style coroutines
  • use channels for communication between C coroutines
  • avoid callback-based async programming in C
  • build network servers with blocking-style concurrency in C
  • port Go-style concurrency patterns to C codebases

When to choose

  • you need Go-like concurrency primitives in a C project
  • you prefer blocking-style code over event-loop callbacks in C
  • you want lightweight coroutines with channel-based communication

When to avoid

  • you are writing modern C++ and can use native coroutines or std::thread
  • you need a maintained, actively developed library
  • you want full async I/O ecosystems like libuv
